true, but Ed’s PR team is going to have to think long and hard about how to play this one, he and Taylor Swift are up there on the top of “you better not fuck up the money train”

They're going to completely ignore it and hope it goes away, most likely

It’s only going to get worse if he does nothing. At minimum, he’s getting booed when he next tours Europe. He either needs to make a public statement or cancel some dates.

There are enough Sheeran fans that are unaware of what is going on or totally indifferent. His "statement" about it all makes it pretty clear that they don't care about the current blowback or that it's really not registering enough to affect the tour.

I hope long term this affects him but I doubt this will impact the tour at all.
